While a third commented: I make a lot more of my own food these days bc of stuff like this.

Another added: sit down restaurant it is for that price!

Someone else said: This exact burger plus large fries and large drink comes out to $9.69 here in Texas. So how the heck you get $16? Where you live?

He expressed skepticism about rewards programs, stating, “They track your ordering habits and show you offers.”

In the interview with Dot Daily, Topher said that the prices should reflect what customers truly need to pay without sharing personal information.

He criticized businesses for using customer data against.

He said: “If it doesn’t frustrate you, there’s a problem,” he concluded.

Topher’s McDonald’s meal price highlights broader concerns about food affordability today.

Rising costs leave many consumers questioning whether fast food is still a convenient option.

More people are turning to home-cooked meals. As a result, the fast-food industry may need to reconsider its pricing strategies.
